KU Football Alum Thrives in NFL

Craig Reynolds, a 2018 Kutztown University alum, returned to the Detroit Lions active roster for their Week 15 game and put on a show at Ford Field, Sunday, rushing for a career-high 112 yards as the Lions upset the NFC West-leading Arizona Cardinals, 30-12. On Monday, Pro Football Focus (PFF) reported Reynolds agreed to an extension with the Lions through 2022. Reynolds became the first Kutztown Golden Bear to rush for 100 yards in a National Football League (NFL) game since Bruce Harper put up 118 for the New York Jets against the Buffalo Bills nearly four decades ago on Oct. 3, 1983.
